But that's my point, there's 2 strands to the offence - the intent, which as you say was there, and the actual physical deed. It is is the physical deed that was not there - i.e. he did not actually prevent a clear goalscoring opportunity as someone else popped it in the net. Maybe that isn't how the rules of the game read, but that to me is the sensible and pragmatic approach refs take in practice.
